Am I missing something here? You do not want your mother taking your daughter to the Kingdom Hall? Its your daughter, you don't need tactics, or strategy. You just say no, my daughter will not be going to any Kingdom Hall. End of story.

Boldly Going (Everyone's advice needed)...
by Tuesday inhey guys, long time from me and no topics (yup moving is a pain).
i'm sure no one really remembers but at my last postings i was mentioning that my wife was pregnant.
well now i'm the proud poppa of a beautiful 2 week old baby girl.. this of course brings complications, my mother is still an active jw and surely chomping at the bit to bring my daughter (did i mention she's beautiful) to show off to all her meeting friends.. of course i don't want my daughter exposed to this, so i came up with a tactic i would like everyone's opinion on.

To all of you who continue to "cover your tracks" and are still in ((HUGS))
by Lady Liberty indear friends,.
there are so many here with circumstances that will not allow them to leave the borg, and who week after week have to put on a show, and go to the meetings and service, that i just wanted to send you a big (((hug)) for hangng in there.. though each situation is no doubt different, one thing most likely the same..you would leave if you could,, and you have to endure all the things being taught each week, that you have come to learn are lies!
but we are glad you are here!!

Sorry, I am not going to applaud people who are living a lie. There is nothing brave or noble about what they are doing. And to somehow attempt to justify it by claiming that they are able to pass on 'inside information" is a joke.
I understand that its a very difficult position to be in, its very hard to contemplate losing friends and family. But some of us have already made that choice, or had it made for us, and we've survived. Again, how in the world can you say you are helping your family members by helping them remain trapped in the Borg?

All this talk of repurposed Kingdom Halls reminds me of a discussion with another ex-JW a while ago, his theory was that the Society deliberately built Kingdom Halls in prime locations with basically a generic layout(i.e. no windows) just for the purpose that it would always be relatively easy to sell them off at some point and turn a nice profit. So they are less of a publishing business and more of a real estate company nowadays.

Weird Al is the greatest! I love White and Nerdy, but I love all his stuff. What's sad is his non-parody songs are just as good, but hardly ever get any recognition. One More Minute... hilarious!
the Monday after it appeared on Night Tracks over the weekend.
Night Tracks!!!! Leo you are an eighties child! One of the best places to watch videos ever!!! Not Mtv with their stupid Vee-Jays (note to youngsters: at one time Mtv played music videos. Crazy, I know, but true) Night Tracks was like 6 hours of solid, back-to-back videos!! Ok, I think they had commercials, too. But it was awesome back in the day.

I believe something similar happened to the old Kingdom Hall in Fargo, ND. I googled the address, and sure enough, its now an Islamic Center.

What was WTBTS giving as counsel to parents with disabled children in 60's?
by sf inmy search and re-search is to know this issue fully and gain all insight as to what parents of disabled children were being told when it came to any further treatment and/ or prognosis; surgery, therapy, medication and such.. i will, of course, look at wt official site to see what is there.
yet, i'm hoping i get everything i need, right here, with those that know what was being taught on this issue in the 60's and 70's up until now.. thank you.. skally.

Skally,
You seem like you already have your own ideas about what kind of information the Watchtower would publish regarding children with disabilities. And now you're complaining that no one is coming up with quotes to back up your preconceived notions.

Bachelor Weekend!
by RollerDave inlooks like i'll be having a bachelor weekend as my beck is going out of town on a 'consolation prize' vacation with her mom.. see, her mom tried inviting herself along on out trip up north to stay in the dome, and we put the kibosh on that!.
but they had to offer her something, so i was beck and her sister rosie taking their mom to wisconsin dells this weekend.. i got my truck, my scooter is fixed, i'm at my lowest weight since starting my diet and feel great (except for a bit of a cold), the upside is i can do anything i want!.
the downside: no beck.. i think friday night i'll go to the best asian resteraunt in the known universe in no.
